Since this book came out after the movie, I will have to critique both.
I believe that the storyline really does something that very few pieces that have been solidified in the "dark academia" genre failed to do: critique academia itself. Dark academia asks for you to look at academia as a whole and see the effects it has on its students. The word "dark" refers to more than just dimly-lit rooms and an unclear atmosphere; it refers to the dark effects that the institution of academia has. These effects are seen in the tattered mental health of many of the key characters - particularly Neil Perry and Todd Anderson.

Something that the book unfortunately misses is the little details and context that could be found in the movie. However, I believe the author does well trying to convey most of what the characters did and felt in the book.
